Anchorage, Alaska - Orso Restaurant

We stopped for lunch at a restaurant next to Orso and it was packed with a forty minute wait. The hostess suggested that we go next door to Orso, so since we didn't want to wait we went next door.  The place had a few people sitting at tables but was otherwise fairly empty.  Hmmmm, this didn't look good.  We sat down to look at menus and within a few minutes time, the place was buzzing and filling quickly.

 The waitress suggested that we start with their famous Cinnamon Roll as an appetizer.  This was so good that it brought moans from around the table. Mom said that it reminded her of the great rolls that she used to be able to get years ago. You just don't find rolls made as well as this these days.
